Motivation is the internal state or condition that serves to activate or
energize behavior. Motivation is what drives an individual to achieve a goal.
Motivation theorists believe that motivation plays an important role in the
performance of all learned responses. There are different sources of motivation
described as intrinsic and extrinsic. We will explore different theories of
motivation in this course. The goal of this course is to educate the

different sources of motivation, the stages of change, Social Cognitive
Theories of Motivation, and the different types of motivation. Brain design and
motivation, the influence of environment on motivation, and how ADHD affects
motivation will also be discussed in this course.

DUI Approved – 2016 Course – 3 CEUsCode: M603As DUI Evaluators, you might wonder why you would need to know anything about domestic violence. As you will learn, there is a strong link between substance and domestic violence, but more importantly, the effect on those living with the violence. We recognize that as evaluators, you only have a limited amount of time to conduct an assessment. We also recognize that the assessment tool that is utilized does not allow for the gathering of much information related to domestic violence. However, a fair percentage of your clientele is either a perpetrator or victim, and they might disclose information that could be useful to conducting a thorough assessment and an informed recommendation.On a more personal note, most of us know someone who is a victim or a perpetrator. Knowing how to help and be supportive is essential. Additionally, many women have no idea that they are in a battering relationship because they are not physically abused. Knowledge of the other types of abuse may enable you to assist in identifying a battering relationship and ending the abuse.

As a DUI Evaluators and DUI School personnel, you encounter individuals every single day that are struggling to overcome trauma of some type or another. For many, alcohol and drugs are the method of coping. And while it is easy to be judgmental, understanding the trauma endured by these individuals, and the ultimate effect on their lives can make us much more understanding, much less judgmental, and much more equipped to render the help they need…and deserve.

Often, individuals who abuse substances are unaware that they are using as a coping mechanism for unresolved trauma. They may have little or no recollection of the trauma, or may not even recognize that it was that traumatic. Those who enter treatment may end up getting stuck in a cycle of chronic relapse, or may stop using drugs or alcohol but begin to self-soothe with an eating disorder, sex addiction or self-harm since the underlying trauma was never addressed. It is up to everyone involved in the treatment referral and the subsequent intervention to recognize the prevalence of trauma among substance abusers.
